Sony Pictures has unveiled a new TV spot for filmmakerEdgar Wright’s highly anticipated new filmBaby Driver, and it continues to look incredible. Written and directed by theShaun of the DeadandHot Fuzzdirector, the film is a heist story starringAnsel Elgortas the titular Baby, a getaway driver who suffers from tinnitus and listens to music to drown out the ringing in his ears. The film itself is almost entirely soundtracked to the digetic music that Baby is listening to, as he gets involved in one last heist before hopefully breaking free of the crime life for good.
This new TV spot highlights the kinetic chase sequences and whip-smart dialogue as spoken byKevin Spacey, which sounds like something of a mission statement for the film itself. Wright is one of the most talented and exciting directors working today—a true singular talent—so the prospect of him putting a unique spin on the heist movie is wildly exciting. It’s been far too long since Wright’s last film—the terrific 2013 sci-fi featureThe World’s End—soBaby Drivercannot come soon enough. Reviews out of the film’s SXSW premierewere extremely positive, and the film madeCollider’s list of the 25 films you need to see this summer, so bring it on.
